Well we had a few good days this summer unfortunately the last time out was the last!
I bought this boat this summer to treat the kids to some skiing and tubing. Mission accomplished until Labor Day weekend at Deep Creek Lake in Western Maryland. After a day out I stopped at the marina for gas for the next day. After leaving there and heading to the dock I couldn't get the RPM's up or get it on a plane. After a couple of tries I heard a light knock. I'm not a mechanic but do know a knock is not good. We idled to the dock and parked for the night. Next day it got worse so I crippled it back to the ramp and trailered it. At home I put the mufflers on it to flush and see if I could isolate the knock. Something broke or cut loose.  With the key now it just turns over(fast) like maybe it has low or no compression.
This boat has Eye Appeal. Gets lotsa looks and chat around the dock. The outdrive appears to be in good shape and overall the structure of the boat is good.The trailer is good, I expect you can go a ways without issue. I had just purchased 2 new tires which have not been put on the trailer yet(chrome rims in pic.). Ask questions, I'll do my best to answer(remember I am not a mechanic). Boat is being offered As-Pictured in As-Is Condition.My loss is your gain if your mechanically inclined and have the time. I had allot of fun with it, hopefully you will too.The boat is located it Martinsburg, WV. 25404. I do not have a problem if you cannot pick it up for 3 or 4 weeks - As Long As It Is PAID FOR:)
